Around 3 weeks ago, I downloaded the 2nd beta of KDE 3.2 from their FTP site. I've been using this release every day since then. The purpose of my writing this piece is not to highlight KDE 3.2's new features and applications - read the Changelog at KDE's site for that - but to give you a complete picture of how it measures up to its previous versions in terms of everyday use. Does it make me more productive? Is the command line more efficient yet? Or, even better, does it make me use the command line more effectively? Read on...
Overall, I though it was a pretty good review and I am looking forward to the stable release. Just a minor comment regarding his switch from gvim to kate. He mentioned that he wasn't able to use the scroll wheel in vim or gvim. He must have something misconfigured somewhere because I use a scrollwheel with gvim all of the time and have never had any problems.
